This post keeps making me cry laughingg
it’s getting weird knowing natural apocalypse from climate change is bearing down on us all and still going about mundane daily life kinda like
hey kids, I love you all and I know things are seeming dire and scary, but
humanity is worth saving, you are worth saving, our children are worth saving and every other life form on this planet is worth saving
don’t give up hope, a lot of painful change is on the way but we still have the power and the resources and influence to do so, I promise
So. Real talk.
I have spent a significant portion of my life sick in bed. This means I have read... a lot of fanfiction. I do not want to run the numbers (for my own sanity) but there is a nonzero chance that I have read a greater volume of fanfiction than most of you will in a lifetime (yes, even in a tumblr crowd, where I have some real competition 😆).
For a number of years I was really embarrassed by this because for most of my life, I've fit best with the 'socially elitist nerd' set. You know - the ones who don't care if you make a little less eye contact, as long as your performance of intelligence can make them feel intelligent too. I "passed" there. So more than a decade of constant fluff and rom-com "junk" really felt like something I should be ashamed of.
But I've realized recently what fanfiction (or any free web fiction) really is. It's the author's hopes. It's the author's fears. It's all the things you wouldn't write to publish because they feel too sad, or sinful, or sacred.
Without really thinking about it, I've been drinking from the well of human desire - from fear, and love, and lust. I've been reading your precious wishes for family, or protection, or connection. I've been learning how you dream life could be.
Thank you to every writer whose work I have read or will read someday. Thank you for sharing the most precious parts of your heart, even when you didn't realize what you were doing. To every writer out there - every middle schooler with dreams, every suburban mom wishing her life could be something more. You reached out into the oblivion with the piece of yourself you probably don't even share with those closest. And somewhere in this world, a person noticed. Your dreams and hopes and wishes became a piece of me too.
I am so lucky to be the person who heard you.
Sigh (i am also aro btw)
this and also the only difference between fanfic writers and writers who sell their own original works as careers is that fanfics aren’t monetized. that’s all.
being a “professional” writer doesn’t mean your works are inherently better than fanfics. I’ve read so many fics that are more professionally written than some published books.
whether or not a piece of writing is monetized has nothing to do with its quality.
i get so emotional every time i think about fanfic culture. it's just so beautiful that people are writing and anonymously posting these thousand-word stories about characters we all love and not even getting any money or public fame from it. it's literally just for the love of the game.
shout out to everyone who participates in fanfic culture, be it reading or writing fanfics. you are contributing to such a lovely thing <3
I love being trans and getting mentally healthier. My parents are maga while I’m extremely queer and they’ve caught me being queer so many times and their dumbasses just accepted that I went back into the closet like no I’m still queer I’m just not loud about it yet lmao. What’s really funny to me is I’m 16, and I’ve come to a very intense and crazy realization that what my parents do is ass but truth be told they have damn near nothing to control me on.
like what, I cut all my hair off and they take away my devices? Take my door off the hinges? Okay, and? Try harder bitch I don’t need music and privacy with the euphoria I’m feeling :P
I can’t celebrate pride with a pride flag? I’ll make one bitch, I have the time.
I’m talking to queer people online again and you don’t like that? Okay, take away my phone, I’ll just use my computer, or my best friends old phone that you don’t even know exists.
Like it’s so weird to be in such a good like self assured state of mind where I just can’t be bothered to give a shit anymore lmao. No matter what they do, they can’t take away my ability to think and I will always manage to get my hand on a piece of paper and pen, and that’s all I’ll ever fucking need
locked the fuck in get my money up

I just had an argument with someone who was like “why would we settle for food stamps when we could have universal basic income?”
And it’s just like. People need food right now you know.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Hippie church moms donating quinoa chips to my local food bank have done more for me materially than any internet idealist ever has.
People get pissed at me for being a pragmatist in my political ideals but I’ve been in the position where I was out of food right now.
And who helped me with that? Not people calling for some nebulous revolution. Not people telling me that the system was useless. Not people preaching at me to grow my own food. It was a church food bank partially funded by the state of Texas that some southern hippies donated a bunch of Whole Foods nonsense to.
And you know what? I’m sick and tired of defeatism. What can we get done right now, huh? Are you gonna accept something a bit better to help people right now or are you waiting for your perfect utopia to come to you?
Yeah, UBI is better than the quinoa chips. Sure. But right now the quinoa chips are stopping people from going hungry and if all we can do is get the food bank quinoa chips to more people, then I say so be it. That’s something. I’ll almost always take baby steps over nothing.
Yeah this is also why it annoys me when people are talking about raising the minimum wage to $25 and other people are like “um actually the minimum wage should be $66/hr 🤓☝️” … like let’s worry about getting it above $7.25 first.
“stop traumadumping to your friends tell this to your therapist” my god they paywalled human connection
“If a friend of mine gave a feast, and did not invite me to it, I should not mind a bit. but if a friend of mine had a sorrow and refused to allow me to share it, I should feel it most bitterly. If he shut the doors of the house of mourning against me, I would move back again and again and beg to be admitted so that I might share in what I was entitled to share. If he thought me unworthy, unfit to weep with him, I should feel it as the most poignant humiliation.”
Oscar Wilde
UNPOPULAR OPINION: A lot of "mental health issues" disappear when bills are paid, rent is secure, and the fridge is full. Peace is expensive. And pretending money doesn't affect mental health is privilege.
Reblog to bonk your mutuals on the head every time they start thinking negatively about themselves
specifically this kind of bonk.
In The Road to El Dorado there is only really one inexplicable thing within the plot. Miguel and Tulio plausibly bluff their way through or slip out of most situations. However, I’d never figured out why the volcano actually stops erupting when Tulio commands it.
The conclusion I finally came up with is that the actual gods were watching their big entrance go down, and thought “oh, this’ll be hilarious”
theres a lot of evidence throughout the movie to say that the armadillo (whose name is bibo) is a god.
they first find him in the jungle, where an armadillo has no business being
they find the entrance to the city, while being followed by him
he is present when the volcano starts to erupt (previous concept art also showed him in the background actually stopping the eruption)
miguel and tulio sucked ass at the ball game, so they used Bibo as a ball. He ricocheted himself all over the place and defied physics to get into the hoop every time
they come up with the flood plan to stop cortez when bibo pushed a glass over in front of them
YOUR TELLING ME THEY USED GOD AS A BASKETBALL?
CARDS ARE BACK ON THE SHOP!
My Strawhat Deck!! (Ofc Vivi is included shes a strawhat TO ME) Been working on these for a while and I'm very happy with how they turned out
I will be turning them into an actual deck of cards btw!!! Very excited to sell them at conventions (More info on my insta @\doodle.list 👀) and eventually online! so keep an out for that hehe
i think "turning into a pumpkin" is my new favorite way to articulate the state of things when I am at a function and very overstimulated and it feels like my brain is melting. it's like no i can't be a person anymore i have to leave i'm turning into the pumpkin. the time is up yeah i gotta go. yeah see u later. pumpkin time.
